Unworn Platinum Engagement Ring with 0.32 ct Vintage Diamond from Our Workshop

Today, the ring with a single diamond is considered the classic engagement ring. Here, the precious (and, according to legend, indestructible) stone stands for eternity - which is intended to emphasize the duration of the promise made. The New York jeweler Charles Lewis Tiffany popularized this idea. Tiffany first advertised solitaire rings with a diamond in the center in 1886 and offered them as engagement gifts. However, the tradition of seeing a diamond ring as a symbolic piece of jewellery is actually much older. As early as 1477, Duchess Mary of Burgundy received a diamond ring as a promise of fidelity from her future husband, Maximilian of Habsburg. We designed this ring with this tradition in mind. It is a simple platinum ring that holds its brilliant-cut diamond in a prong setting. For reasons of sustainability, we make this ring entirely from recyclable material. The platinum of the ring and the brilliant-cut diamond are reused. The metal comes from old pieces of platinum jewellery that have been melted down, and the diamond is also a vintage stone that has previously been set in another piece of jewellery. We have observed the reuse of gemstones in numerous pieces of antique jewelry and are continuing this tradition with this ring. In the past, precious gemstones and valuable precious metals were generally not thrown away when the design of a piece of jewellery became unfashionable, but the luxurious components were and are always given new forms. This ring is a wonderful addition to the history of jewellery, which thrives on the durability of beautiful materials and constantly changing tastes. Sustainably manufactured, the ring can adorn many generations to come. We have had an external appraisal carried out on the centrally set diamonds; it is supplied together with a certificate from Hofer Antikschmuck.
